Can't do that with the 60-day DL. So Wang, Detwiler and Flores can't return until June 4 at the earliest.

They're still going to need spots for Wang, Detwiler and Storen at least, over the coming weeks.And if Flores does become healthy, there's no question how a spot gets created for him. Nieves will have to go. They can't carry 4 catchers on the 40 man roster.

I don't know if he is really injured, but his world sure has been a bit insecure lately.
